I'm having a problem after I did emerge --update world last night. |
| 2 |
After it finished, it said 75 files in /etc needed updating. OK, I've |
| 3 |
seen this before and have made mistakes with it. So this time, I |
| 4 |
copied all of /etc to /home/mark/etc.old, and then ran etc-update. I |
| 5 |
then let it auto merge everything and rebooted. |

At this point, KDE would not start. Instead, I got a generic-looking |
| 8 |
X11 screen, and had no mouse. So I did Ctrl+Alt+F1 and got back to a |
| 9 |
cmd line. Then I copied everything back from /etc.old back to its |
| 10 |
original place in /etc and rebooted again. |

Now, KDE starts, and I have a normal login screen. However, when I log |
| 13 |
in, KDE hangs on "Initializing Peripherals". Eventually, the KDE |
| 14 |
startup screen goes away, and I'm left with a blank screen except for |
| 15 |
my background, but no desktop icons. |

Any idea how to fix this? Thanks |
